It's now returning the expected SKIP return code:
$ sudo ./test_user_copy.sh
user: module test_user_copy is not found [SKIP]
$ echo $?

Title:
user_copy in user from ubuntu_kernel_selftests failed on KVM kernel
Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests:
Fix Released

Status in linux-kvm source package in Cosmic:

Bug description:
== Justification ==
This user_copy test has failed while attempting to insert the test_user_copy
module, but this module does not exist in the Bionic KVM kernel as the
CONFIG_TEST_USER_COPY was not enabled.
# modprobe test_user_copy
modprobe: FATAL: Module test_user_copy not found in directory
/lib/modules/4.15.0-1028-kvm
== Fix ==
d7d5311 (selftests: user: return Kselftest Skip code for skipped tests)
3c07aae (selftests: kselftest: change KSFT_SKIP=4 instead of KSFT_PASS)
c31d02d (selftests: kselftest: Remove outdated comment)
This fix will make the test return a skipped retun code if the
test_user_copy module does not exist.
This patch set can be cherry-picked into Bionic, and we already have
it in Cosmic / Disco.
For Xenial, it already got d7d5311 and does not need the other two.
== Test ==
With this patch, the test will return "skipped" as expected:
$ sudo ./test_user_copy.sh
user: module test_user_copy is not found [SKIP]
$ echo $?
4
Note that the test framework will need another fix to treat the SKIP
return code properly. (bug 1812352)
== Regression potential ==
None,
this patch just change the code for the testing tool.

This test_user_copy module will need the CONFIG_TEST_USER_COPY to be enabled
